My lovely wife and our 1-year old black Great Dane puppy, Jersey — talk about a giant mug (not you, honey…the dog):
Mashable asks, “Are we all asking to be robbed?” with the growing trend to use location-based mobile services (such as Google Buzz and Foursquare) to check into places they visit. Which means that they are not at home.
The amazing green belt directly behind our new house is the main reason we moved way out…to have immediate and unimpeded access to green space to run and hike with the dogs.
So, how do three giant dogs stay warm on a night where Al Gore’s Global Warming will help keep our temperatures in the Texas Hill Country at a balmy 13 degrees?
While a large portion of our nation is blanketed under tons of snow and bone-freezing temperatures, here in Austin we’re reaping the benefit of Al Gore’s totally-not-made-up anthropogenic global warming.
So, we survived The Great Blizzard of 2009 here in Austin (though, it is supposed to hit 22 degree tonight…damned global warming).
Was sitting here watching a little FOX News, and looked over to my right and saw our 14-year old mostly-blind and almost-entirely deaf Beagle, Lady Jack of Nacogdoches (Jackie) sitting on the fire place hearth staring at me
It’s what I love about where we live in west Austin — just a few miles from downtown, and we’re standing in 1000s of acres of wide open spaces, surrounded by lakes, hills, trees, and grassy fields full of wild-life.
Someone mentioned that there hadn’t been a daily dog in a while — so here’s a pic I snapped of our 2 year-old black Great Dane, Angus, yesterday when we went running in a green belt canyon near Spicewood, TX:
Happy Independence Day to all you stop by here. I hope your holiday weekend is filled with much food, friends, and family having fabulous fun.
Our little boy, Jersey turns 6 months old on Monday. We got him when he was 6 weeks old. Here’s how damned fast Great Dane puppies grow.
Our friends Rex and Lisa invited over 100 members (and their dogs, of course) of our Great Dane Meet Up group out to their sprawling lakeside home yesterday for a pot luck gathering;
I hope each of you had as wonderful a Memorial Day today as we did.
We brought Jersey home two weeks ago, and now, one day short of being 8 weeks old — our little puppy is almost twice as big as he was 2 weeks ago and nearly as big as our old lady Beagle.
